FY11 Operating Plan and Budget Adopted by Board in Brussels is Now Posted

9 July 2010

On 25 June 2010 in Brussels, the ICANN Board approved the FY11 Operating Plan 
and Budget [PDF, 2.51 MB], which describes the planned activities and required 
resources for this fiscal year. The activities are based on ICANN's strategic 
priorities, and include comments and feedback received from the community on 
both the Budget Framework [PDF, 767 KB] posted 17 February 2010 and the draft 
Operating Plan and Budget [PDF, 1.33 MB] posted 17 May 2010.

Based upon community feedback received during the Brussels meeting, the Board 
has committed to make adjustments to the FY11 operating plan, if necessary. 
Staff will work with community members including Supporting Organizations and 
Advisory Committees to clarify details of the adopted operating plan and review 
recommendations for additional activities to ensure an equitable allocation of 
ICANN's work. If necessary, funds will be requested from contingency.

The process of working more directly with the Supporting Organizations and 
Advisory Committees to ensure that activities and priorities are best aligned 
with the community's requirements will be further developed and expanded upon 
in the development of the FY12 Operating Plan and Budget. Discussions with SO 
and AC chairs regarding the FY12 plans is expected to commence by October 2010, 
earlier than ever before.

More financial information, including the Board adopted FY11 Operating Plan and 
Budget can be found on the ICANN Financial Information page.
